Join the Cashless Movement with eWallet Technology

The demand for eWallet technology is rising

As cash payments dwindle, the growing demand for digital wallet technology, or rather, eWallet technology, rises. Mobile payments are on the rise, with pre-coronavirus projections estimating more than 1 billion users in 2020. Consumers and businesses alike have come around to the notion they no longer need cash or physical credit cards to conduct transactions.

‍
By 2018, 29% of online merchants accepted mobile wallet payments. Estimates place digital wallet use at 1.31 billion by 2023 and it is on its way to surpassing the use of credit cards and cash.

We’re on the brink of a cashless society

As the world navigates the COVID-19 pandemic, the concept of a cashless society no longer seems so foreign.

‍
What is a cashless society? This means that alternative forms of payments, such as credit cards, contactless payments, or cryptocurrencies will completely replace the once sole method of transacting – cash.  

‍
Countries around the world are embracing cashless payment systems. Sweden, China, Japan and the United Kingdom are among the top countries that have been early adopters, embracing cashless payments. According to data from the Sweden central bank, the Riksbank, in 2018 an astounding 85% of the country were reported to have access to online banking with a mere 2% of transaction being cash.

‍
Australia is not far behind as the Australian Reserve Bank’s 2019 Consumer Payments Survey reported that since 2007, there has been a decrease in cash payments by over 40%. As of yet, there are no truly cashless societies, but some experts speculate that it could be as early as 2022.

‍
Whilst the thought of a cashless society provokes controversy among some, it offers opportunity among others.
